Palazzo dei Cecchi, dating back to the 15th century, is located in the heart of Siena’s historic center on the elegant Via di Pantaneto. Once part of the Via Francigena pilgrimage route, this street lies just steps from the iconic Piazza del Campo. 

Over time, the palazzo underwent several transformations, reaching its current aristocratic form in the 18th century, reflecting the refined European style of the era. 

The Piano Nobile was designed for receptions and grand events, welcoming distinguished guests during their Grand Tour or as part of the international hunting gatherings popular since the time of Violante of Bavaria, then Governor of Siena. 

The centerpiece of these gatherings was the ballroom, where an elevated gallery accommodated the orchestra. Adjacent salons hosted prominent visitors in an atmosphere of refined elegance. The ornate stucco work throughout the interiors is crafted in the rocaille style, influenced by contemporary Austrian and French trends.

The name "Pantaneto" derives from pantano, referring to the mud and straw once spread across the stone pavement to soften the sound of carriages – a thoughtful measure for the noble families residing along the street.

With approximately 700 square meters of space, Palazzo dei Cecchi combines architectural grandeur with modern comfort, offering a rare residential or hospitality opportunity in one of Siena’s most prized locations. Its central position allows easy access to key monuments, museums and the rich cultural life of the city.
